Cezanne's Carrot To Publish Story By Clyo Beck

I'm delighted to announce that my creative non-fiction story, How To Get A New Roof, was selected by the editors of Cezanne's Carrot as a finalist in their Journeys contest.

For those unfamiliar with this U.S. literary periodical located in Sante Fe, New Mexico, Cezanne's Carrot publishes a volume of fiction and non-fiction stories quarterly on each Equinox and Solstice.

As a result this memoir, which is so dear to my heart, will be published in the 2008 Winter Solstice Edition of Cezanne’s Carrot.

In addition, my story has been forwarded to the contest's guest judge, Tamara Kaye Sellman, who will select the winner of the category. The winner will be announced when the issue goes live on the Winter Solstice.

The four nonfiction finalists for this contest are:

Devon Ward-Thommes for “On Beauty”
Diane Elayne Dees for “Summoning the Loa”
Robert Brandon Henderson for “Immersion”
Clyo Beck for “How to Get a New Roof”
